DNA polymerase with characteristics of reverse transcriptase purified from human milk

J A Kantor et al. Science. .

Abstract

A DNA polymerase purified from a particulate fraction of human milk has biochemical and biophysical properties similar to those of viral reverse transcriptases. This enzyme is immunologically distinct from cellular DNA polymerases obtained from a variety of human sources.
